So we’re a month away from the next Collective Shelf discussion session – this time focusing on Unchartered by Margaret Heffernan.
How are we all finding this book so far? Personally, I’m taking it slowly and savouring the points it makes. So far, my favourite bit has been the points raised on memory in Chapter 2. The idea that our unreliable memories don’t need to be a negative, instead can be seen to help us be more creative and flexible is an interesting one to explore and I’m looking forward to seeing how that plays out during the rest of the book!
This time around I’m listening to/reading it via Audible and then recapping using the paperback. It’s been helpful to keep me more focused on the ideas being raised and elaborate in my notes about how I think the points could help myself and the wider community.
So how have you found it so far? And how are you reading it?

I’m about 1/3 way through. I think some of the points are really interesting e.g. using history as a predictor of future behaviour but it’s not really coming together as a book yet. It seems to make half a point and then move onto something else.

I totally get that, Pete. I’m hoping that it’ll be more of a case of first third is putting the ideas out there, second third is connecting them to how we move forward, and last third on how it can power change proactively…let’s see!

Hey everyone!
I’m just into Part 2: ’What would you do if you were free’
It’s been a decent read so far, lots of ideas thrown around! Many of these I am agreeable on, but some a little bifurcating.
One example I’m pondering is the Automation paradox (GPS vs Maps) which is true, but what relevance does that have in 2022?
I’m enjoying it greatly, the world is indeed infinitely more complex than we give it credit for, and we should proceed with cur…

Thank you for this take on it, Jake – it’s really interesting to use these books to not only question what we’re creating our careers but also in the wider world. The discussion this month will be excellent, I know.

I’m finally into it and enjoying the theme of how misleading it is to simplify forecasting. It brings together some really interesting concepts although I agree it hasn’t started to tie them together yet

Yes and I have it installed but keep forgetting to play with it as I don’t have many standardised emails. Good reminder to play.
